Patch Adams – A Difference Maker

icon1 Posted by Josh Lipovetsky in Film Analysis on 07 14th, 2009 | 1 Comment

Patch Adams is an extremely inspirational movie. It is about a man named Hunter “Patch” Adams, who saw an opportunity where others did not. And most importantly, he took action without any fear of repercussions. Patch Adams used humor to connect with other people, and to help sick patients heal better and faster. His methods were extremely controversial, yet they always seemed to work. This movie is about a man with a vision; who, despite many obstacles, stayed on his original path of intent, and began a small revolution in the medical industry. Patch Adams is the owner of Gesundheit Institute, an organization which focuses on improving others lives, and changing the healthcare model. His organization can be found at www.patchadams.org.

What would constitute a person as a difference maker? Anyone can make a difference, whether it be through volunteering your money or time to a charitable cause, or creating a cause from scratch by yourself. It can also include daily acts of kindness. Putting a genuine smile on someone’s face is one of the nicest things you can do on a daily basis. Patch Adams made it his focus in life, to help other people. By doing this, all of the problems that he faced in his life took a back seat to his generosity. “Give, and you shall receive” is a famous statement, and it can be applied universally. Give your kind spirits, and you shall receive even more kindness in return. Although faced with tragedy, Patch Adams still continued his journey to revolutionize the medical field.

Patch Adams shows the true miracles that can happen when you focus on other people’s happiness. There may be many bumps on the road, but it is one of the strongest ways to contribute to society. Patch Adams is a beautiful movie, which gives a true example of a difference maker. If you feel like you want to make a difference in other peoples lives, watch Patch Adams to feel inspired and empowered.

    Good review and seems like a good movie, but I just don’t like Robin Williams that much, actually I dislike it alot and don’t think he’s funny at all.

    Keep on writing good reviews :)
